This paper presents experimental and numerical investigations on the thermal performance
of composite slabs comprised of closed profiled steel decking and recycled aggregate …

Ethnopharmacological relevance Despite advances in modern therapeutic strategies,
cancer remains the second leading cause of death worldwide. Therefore, there is a constant …

In order to improve structural thermal performances, this paper designed a two-layered
functionally graded concrete (FGC) slab composed of an ultra-high performance concrete …

The dynamics of systems of systems often involve complex interactions among the individual
systems, making the implications of design choices challenging to predict. Design features …

The thermal behavior of composite steel-concrete slabs in fire is more or less known,
however there are still a lot of different aspects in the fire design methods that need …

Seaweeds are a valuable resource for food development due to their nutritional composition
and technological properties. This work aimed to evaluate Undaria sp. powder (UP) …

Recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is increasingly being used in the construction of
structural elements. However, the performance of RAC elements under fire is usually …

Floor slabs play a critical role in the fire resistance of buildings, not only by maintaining
structural stability and integrity, but also by providing thermal insulation to limit the rise in …
